A stone of mass m = 1.05 kg is released from a height of h = 2.1 m into a pool of water. At a time of t = 1.83 s after hitting t

he surface of the water, the stone's velocity has decreased by 50%.
What is the magnitude of the average force the stone experiences, in newtons, during the time t?

Answer:

Explanation:

ignoring air resistance, the kinetic energy at water impact will equal the potential energy converted

½mv² = mgh

v = √(2gh)

v = √(2(9.81)2.1) = 6.4188... m/s

after impact, an impulse will result in a change of momentum.

There is a downward impulse due to gravity equal to the weight of the stone and an upward average force due to water resistance and buoyancy force.

FΔt = mΔv

(F - mg)Δt = m(vf - vi)

(F - mg) = m(vf - vi)/Δt

F = m(vf - vi)/Δt + mg

F = m((vf - vi)/Δt + g)

F = 1.05(((½(-6.4188) - -6.4188)/ 1.83) + 9.81)

F = 12.14198...

F = 12.1 N

A student moves a box across the floor by exerting 56.7 N of force and doing 195 J of
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

A. 3.4 m

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Force = 56.7N

Workdone = 195J

To find the distance

Workdone is given by the formula;

Workdone = force * distance

Making "distance" the subject of formula, we have;

Distance = \frac {workdone}{force}

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Distance = \frac {195}{56.7}

Distance = 3.4 meters.

A vertical spring with stiffness k originally is at rest with no mass attached. Then, a mass M is attached, and the spring rocks
Alina [70]

Answer:

The position of the spring in terms of g, m & k is x = \frac{m g}{k}

Explanation:

Stiffness of the spring = k

Mass = m

When a mass m is attached with the spring then spring stretched. in that case the force exerted on the spring is equal to weight of the mass attached.

⇒ Force exerted on the spring F = k x

⇒ m g = k x

⇒ x = \frac{m g}{k}

This is the position of the spring in terms of g, m & k.

balu736 [363]
<h2>2) Copernicus rediscovered Aristarchus’s heliocentric model.</h2>

Before Copernican Revolution, people did believe in the ptolemain model that establishes the description of the Universe with the earth at the center having sun, moon, starts and planets all orbited earth. On the other hand, the heliocentric model establishes the sun at the center of the solar system and this starts with the publication of Nicolas Copernicus named <em>De revolutionibus orbium coelestium.</em>

<h2>5) Newton’s theories of gravity increased understanding of the movement of planets.</h2>

The revolution ended with Isaac Newton's work over a century later. As you well know, Newton was both a physicist and mathematician, better known for his prodigal work called <em>Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica. </em>In this revolution, he is known for his laws of motion and universal gravitation increasing understanding of the movement of planets.

A sinusoidal wave has the following wave function: y(x,t) = (2.5 m) sin((3.0 m ) x - (24 s-')t + Tt/2] What is the frequency of
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Frequency of the wave is 3.8 hertz.

Explanation:

It is given that, the sinusoidal wave has following wave equation as :

y(x,t)=(2.5\ m)sin[(3\ m^{-1})x-(24\ s^{-1})t+\pi/2]

The general equation for the sinusoidal wave is :

y=A\ sin(kx-\omega t+\phi)

Where

A is the amplitude

k is the constant

\omega is the angular frequency

\phi is the phase difference

Since, \omega=24\ s^{-1}

2\pi f=24

f=\dfrac{24}{2\pi}=3.81\ Hz

or

f = 3.8 Hz

So, the frequency of the wave is 3.8 hertz. Hence, this is the required solution.
